Thursday 111117 WOD

TAYLOR KNOX is one of the fittest surfers on the ASP World Tour...he's also the oldest. That's why after 18+ years on Tour, he's till getting good results against surfers almost half his age. In fact, Taylor was inducted into the Surfing Hall of Fame this year.

Part of 1990′s “New School” crew that replaced the 80′s power surfers, Knox was known for his rail-to-rail style of surfing.  Taylor won the 1995 U.S. Championship and then led the 1996 American team to victory at the ISA World Surfing Games with his first place finish in the talent-rich men’s division.

Knox has proven that age shows no limits as he nears his 40th birthday while entering his 18th year on the ASP World Tour for 2011. While in the 90's the "veteran" surfers were retiring by the time they hit 30-31 years, Taylor and 11x World Champ Kelly Slater have proven that discipline, training and a healthy lifestyle can add a lot more years to an elite athlete's career.
